This phase is going to be a bunch of location shots.

If you're not familiar with the Rider Portraits project here's a link.

Here are the first three shots. I know Wayne is looking for some more folks to participate, so you may want to catch him on Facebook, or email him at wayne {at} wayneserrano{dot}com.

The best part of the whole thing was we were stopped up on Ridgecrest, and a bunch of bicyclists went by, saying, "hey, cool Ducatis" and as they went off in the distance they started making revving motor noises like a bunch of kids. Cracked us all up!

Verrrrrry purdy.  I *can* wait to do that.  What I can't wait to do is ride.  As soon as I get back from NJ after the holidays....

It was wet, and the sun was just out. That plus Wayne's ginormous flash.

I'm just glad that last word is "flash."  I really thought you were headed somewhere else with that.

So that's the makeshift reflector for the flash huh? You must have been squinting after you got your retinas burned out.  laughingdp

Bigiain told me about this thread and project after I showed him a similar themed project I am shooting myself here in Oz. If you want to see them hit my mattvas site below and see the personal portfolio.

It is a real pleasure for a photographer to photograph people and there passions.
I love this theme of amazing bikes-roads-lighting.
I'll be watching from now to see how it develops and if that Multi 1200 does indeed become beautiful.

Thanks Michael, I am having a great deal of enjoyment shooting them.
It will be exhibited next year here in Sydney and I'd love to take it one the road!

Cheers

Too bad I sold my 888 Superbike.  I always wanted a portrait shot with that bike, but it never happened.  The KTM just isn't as photogenic.
